چکیده

We show that under certain conditions the square of the graph obtained by identifying a vertex in two graphs with hamiltonian square is also hamiltonian. Using this result, we prove necessary and sufficient conditions for hamiltonicity of the square of a connected graph such that every vertex of degree at least three in a block graph corresponds to a cut vertex and any two these vertices are at distance at least four.

A note on powers of Hamilton cycles in generalized claw-free graphs

Seymour conjectured for a fixed integer k ≥ 2 that if G is a graph of order n with δ(G) ≥ kn/(k + 1), then G contains the kth power Ck n of a Hamiltonian cycle Cn of G, and this minimum degree condition is sharp. Earlier the k = 2 case was conjectured by Pósa. This was verified by Komlós et al. [4]. For s ≥ 3, a graph is K1,s-free if it does not contain an induced subgraph isomorphic to K1,s. S...

Pairs of forbidden class of subgraphs concerning K1, 3 and P6 to have a cycle containing specified vertices

In [3], Faudree and Gould showed that if a 2-connected graph contains no K1,3 and P6 as an induced subgraph, then the graph is hamiltonian. In this paper, we consider the extension of this result to cycles passing through specified vertices. We define the families of graphs which are extension of the forbidden pair K1,3 and P6, and prove that the forbidden families implies the existence of cycl...

Cayley graph associated to a semihypergroup

The purpose of this paper is the study of Cayley graph associated to a semihypergroup(or hypergroup). In this regards first  we associate a Cayley graph to every semihypergroup and then we study theproperties of this graph, such as  Hamiltonian cycles in this  graph.  Also, by some of examples we will illustrate  the properties and behavior of  these Cayley  graphs, in particulars we show that ...

Minimum degree and disjoint cycles in generalized claw-free graphs

For s ≥ 3 a graph is K1,s-free if it does not contain an induced subgraph isomorphic to K1,s. Cycles in K1,3-free graphs, called clawfree graphs, have beenwell studied. In this paper we extend results on disjoint cycles in claw-free graphs satisfying certain minimum degree conditions to K1,s-free graphs, normally called generalized claw-free graphs. In particular, we prove that if G is K1,s-fre...

Edge pair sum labeling of some cycle related graphs

Let G be a (p,q) graph. An injective map f : E(G) → {±1,±2,...,±q} is said to be an edge pair sum labeling if the induced vertex function f*: V (G) → Z - {0} defined by f*(v) = ΣP∈Ev f (e) is one-one where Ev denotes the set of edges in G that are incident with a vertex v and f*(V (G)) is either of the form {±k1,±k2,...,±kp/2} or {±k1,±k2,...,±k(p-1)/2} U {±k(p+1)/2} according as p is even or o...
